- That Lady in The Pool: Photograph Permissions
and download
The woman in the pool photograph is from an old advertisement
from Spectrum Cellular, long out of business. It may have never
been copyrighted. I did a search, though, to make sure no copyright
was infringed upon by contacting two former employees of the
company. Here's what one wrote:
Tue, 20 Feb 2001 12:53:18 -0600 From: Arnold Hull <ahull@esi-estech.com>
Mr. Farley,
Larry Blair, a friend and former coworker forwarded your message
to me. Spectrum Cellular has in fact changed names as well as
directions a few times. Last time I checked, it was still
public and traded under SITI (NASDAQ), but it may be completely
folded by now. In fact, I just stopped and checked for
fun and SITI was not found. I would be amazed at this point
if you would be infringing on anything. I know two years
ago it was changing to an Internet marketing company of some
kind, but it never appeared to do anything in that arena.
I can't imagine anyone coming after you for using an image from
a brochure. Live a little and have a nice day.
Regards,
Arnold Hull

- The photograph was already screened for print so it will
always be low quality. You can download two versions by clicking
slowly on the link, holding your cursor down for a second or
two, then saving the image to your hardrive. Select "Save
link as" or somesuch. If you click too quickly your browser
or image program will try to open the files. Image size is 4.473"
wide by 3.113" high. And give my website some credit, okay?
Thanks.

The first portable units
were really big and heavy. Called transportables or luggables,
few were as glamorous as this one made by Spectrum Cellular Corporation.
Oki, too, produced a briefcase model.
